London's been very wet these days (and nights) n' I thought I'd capture some shots on my way home.
Here's one of my favourites.
cool shot - great motion usually I would try to put the person in the frame so there is more photo in the direction they are facing but in this case it works for me. One other thing to try is if to open the levels control and play around with each color channel (red, green blue) to see if you can make the photo more blue than red/yellow. Might give it a different look. Something you would have to play with to see if it is better or worse.

Great shot. You've captured a mood. I love these slow-shutter night scenes.

Nice shot, it looks like a painting :) Just wondering, how come your shots have no exif data?

@jason: Thanks, Jason. I've never tried that before. I'll give it a whirl and see how it turns out.
@Damon: Thanks Damon, I was in a taxi on this particular night and thought I try out my new zoom lense this was one of the better shots.
I think I'm gonna make a habit of these night shots esp. as I hardly see night shots, apart from buildings.
@Ryan: I don't really know much about the exif data issue, but I'll be looking into it.
Thanks.

This photo has such a dark, eerie feel to it. Vey Nice!

Wow. Great picture! I hope your camera didn't get wet. I like the red'ish in the picture although I am wondering if this was his own umbrella :)

i like the redish hue, give the picture a mood to it. It's a pity it's a bit blurry (was it handheld?), but like this it looks more like a scene from a movie than a picture. depends on which one you like. nevertheless, nice shot!

I like this capture. Really impressed. Suby

I was surprised myself, it was handheld. I was in the back of a taxi and had zoomed in through the wet windscreen and wipers through the rain outside to the guy who was on the corner, about 4 or 5 cars away! (The object in the foreground is the rear spoiler of a sports car)
Thanks for the kind comments. I'll keep at it.
